Default Help, Scraping sound from engine!

Sometimes on a cold start, there is a scraping sound coming from the engine for about 3 seconds than it goes away. I thought it may be the oil but the level is fine and I changed it not too long ago. Any ideas what is wrong? Thanks in advance.

There is a long thread on this. They officially call it "Engine Knock" on the TSIB.

Search "engine noise" or something.

Got mine fixed a month ago.
